Summary

Zanesville Community High School is a public charter high school serving grades 9-12 in Zanesville, Ohio, with a total enrollment of 158 students. Unfortunately, this school consistently underperforms compared to state and local standards, ranking in the bottom 25% of Ohio high schools over the past 5 years.

Zanesville Community High School's academic performance is significantly below average, with proficiency rates ranging from just 5% in English II to 30% in Algebra I, compared to state averages of 60.4% and 59.4%, respectively. The school also struggles with high chronic absenteeism rates, ranging from 23.3% to 44.0% over the past 5 years, and its four-year graduation rate, while improving, still lags behind the state average. In comparison, nearby public high schools like John Glenn High School, Tri-Valley High School, and Crooksville High School have higher rankings, better test scores, lower chronic absenteeism, and higher graduation rates.

While Zanesville Community High School has shown some relative strength in serving its special education and disabled student populations, the school still struggles to provide adequate support for these students compared to the state average. Addressing the underlying issues of high chronic absenteeism and low socioeconomic status of the student population could be crucial for improving the school's overall academic performance and outcomes.
